2025 Events
75th Anniversary Country Western Diamond Jubilee
Western Days is looking for sponsors for the biggest and longest-running community event of the year.
View line-up of events on our homepage – click here
The festivities known as Valley Center Western Days which started in 1950 as the Valley Center Country Fair, are celebrating 75 years of community entertainment. It continues to be the largest most popular multi-day event of the year for the area. Since 1970, the community has had a parade during the Memorial Day weekend. As you may have noticed, we’ve made some adjustments to the location of the event and the activities scheduled.
Western Days will once again be held the weekend AFTER Memorial Day. We hope to bring out the crowds and celebrate our community event as we’ve learned residents leave the area over Memorial weekend for a needed vacation.
We have several sponsorship levels based on donation amounts, but we look forward to people and organizations donating what they can afford to make this event the best it can be. If you have questions or requests for your sponsorship, please call the number below or email us and we will be happy to discuss your needs.
